Very Cool Derrick. Great start so far. I have to tell you, I have had an Idea for a drag bike for a while. just trying to figure out which would be the best kit to use. My plan is to start out with a Tamiya 1/12 scale bike kit and to scratch build a Pro Stock Bike Frame using the engine, modifying the body and well little scracth building. It's one thats in the thought process but not sure when I will get to it... :lol:

The Tamiya are the best. My next one will be like this.

Needed a stick for the bike ( BAD ). I had rework the stock tire with a dremel, but still it looked like a stock tire. So i had to come up with something. Took two tops from the testors spray cans. With a little cuting and some dremel work, and as you can see, something that looks like a stick.

Looks can be deceiveing, i've have build a lot of 1/12 bikes and make the wiring harness for them. Some time the pictures make things look BIGER! Thanks for looking in bro.
